WD also went BOW & BOB - owned by Wendy Knox.
WB came from the Open Yellow class and was Am Ch Ducktales And On And On - she also went BOSS - owned by Valerie Jones, Terri Keller & Diane Villa.

I'm not from Mexico... So perhaps someone from Mexico can explain why when the dog wins it's Mexico vs Canada or vs USA? Is this something cultural? For me, it's all about the dogs whether they come from Mexico, USA, Canada, England, Brazil, or whereever... Congratulations to all of the winners, wherever they are from, and whereever they compete!
